Abstract
It has become standard practice since the publication of C. H. Dodd'sl magisterial study on (t~) tA.aOKE09at and cognates in the Greek Bible to translate the New Testament occurrences of this word by 'expiation' or some equivalent term or paraphrase. 2 Although the method that Dodd employed in his analysis of the Septuagint's usage of t~tA.aOKE09at has been challenged, 3 his conclusion that 'expiation' and not 'propitiation' is the more accurate translation in the NT for the iA.aOKEo9at word group has been (and remains) widely accepted.
